Kukla's Korner Hockey

from Fire & Ice, Devils Coach Brent Sutter after a 5-0 loss to the Penguins last night….

“Our effort was brutal outside of our goaltenders. If it wasn’t for the goalies, it probably would have been 8-0 or 9-0. To me, tonight was a total lack of professionalism by our commitment as individuals and as a group, our preparation for how to play. It’s totally unacceptable.

“I will not accept that. That’s not even close. That’s players’ accountability to the front of that jersey.”
